[Tex/LaTex] Disable the numbering of algorithms

algorithmsnumbering

My problem is that I do not know how to disable the numbering for algorithms. I have created an algoritm and its number is "Algorithm 1", but I want to have "Algorithm".

\documentclass{article}

\usepackage[noend]{algorithmic} 
% Hide endif .etc

\usepackage{algorithm}

\algsetup{indent=2em} 
% Default 1 em

\renewcommand{\algorithmiccomment}[1]{\hspace{2em}// #1} 
% Change to C-style comments, though still ugly

\begin{document}
\begin{algorithm}
    \caption{MyAlgorithm} \label{alg:MyAlgorithm}
    \begin{algorithmic}[1]
    % Default no line numbering



    \end{algorithmic}
\end{algorithm}

\end{document}

Best Answer

posting working examples would be a nice idea ... ;-) Now only page references make sense:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[noend]{algorithmic} 
\usepackage{algorithm,caption}
\algsetup{indent=2em} 
\renewcommand{\algorithmiccomment}[1]{\hspace{2em}// #1} 

\begin{document}
\begin{algorithm}
\caption*{MyAlgorithm} \label{alg:MyAlgorithm}
\begin{algorithmic}[1]
\item foo
\end{algorithmic}
\end{algorithm}

see algorithm on Page~\pageref{alg:MyAlgorithm}
\end{document}
